We are launching a new practice to improve driving safety around logging operations.  You may begin to encounter these signs on your lease, and here’s what you need to know.

WHY STOP?  This is a busy job site with log trucks, moving equipment, and workers

What steps should I take?

• STOP
• Be patient
• Do not proceed until operator waves you through
• Maintain a slow speed; use headlights
• Use alternate route if one exists

Guidance around Active Operations

• Always yield the right-of-way to logging trucks whether in a vehicle or an ATV.
• When on the ground (outside vehicles), do not enter within the 300 foot buffer to hunt.  Do not discharge a firearm into the 300-foot buffer.
• Never touch or climb onto any forestry equipment.
• Keep an eye out for machines entering the roadway.
• Always stay at least 100′ away from log piles and parked / loaded trailers.
• While logging activity is ongoing, all club members and guests must wear high visibility clothing whenever outside an enclosed vehicle.
